Desolation
Haloscript Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been caught in this cold outside
Can you confine this, this chasm between us somehow
Is there anything, or any words at all
Provide our fate so open is there anything or any one at all
(That can save us from this place)
My heart beats one half step behind
Can you confine this, this chasm between us somehow
Is there anything, or any words at all
Provide our fate so open that anything or any one at all
(Can save us from this place)
Falling to pieces and losing myself
You're sickness is my daily bread
I'm hungering for you, fumbling toward you
Trying to replay everything you said
This chain is untied, pry apart your weary eyes
Confine, this chasm between us somehow
Is there anything, or any words at all
Provide our fate so open is there anything or any one at all
(That can save us from this place)
The lyrics in HaloScript's song Desolation are a depiction of a situation where the singer is lost and yearning for guidance to move forward. The opening lines "Show me some kind of sign, I've been caught in this cold outside" suggest lack of direction and the need for something to hold onto. The following lines "Can you confine this, this chasm between us somehow, is there anything, or any words at all; provide our fate so open, is there anything or any one that can save us from this place" further reinforce the feeling of being lost and searching for a way out. The uncertainty of the future and the desperation to be saved from the current state are communicated through the lyrics.
The second verse suggests a strong desire to be close to someone, despite the other person's flaws. "Falling to pieces and losing myself, you're sickness is my daily bread, I'm hungering for you, fumbling toward you, trying to replay everything you said" describes the singer's need for the other person despite the emotional toll it might take. The repetition of "Confine, this chasm between us somehow, is there anything, or any words at all; provide our fate so open is there anything or any one at all (That can save us from this place)" emphasizes the feeling of desperation and the search for answers.
